Nations That Long In Darkness Walked
Have Now Beheld A Glorious Light;
On Them Who Dwelt In Shades Of Death
The Light Hath Shined Heavenly Bright.
For Lo! The Virgin’s Child Is Born;
To Us The Son Of God Is Given.
Upon His Shoulders Shall Be Laid
The Government Of Earth And Heaven.
His Name Is Called Wonderful,
The Counsellor, The Mighty God,
Eternal Father, Prince Of Peace,
Peace Dearly Purchased With His Blood.
His Government Shall Know No Bounds,
But Far And Wide Over All Extend;
And Happy Peace, The Glorious Fruits
Of His Just Reign, Shall Know No End.
Over David’s Kingdom, On His Throne
To Rule, And Establish It Secure
With Judgment Clear, And Justice Right;
His Reign Forever Shall Endure.
